Gen. Taylor and tlto Tariff*
Amongst other falsehoods published by the Federal
Whigs, in the German copy of the life of Gen. Tuy»
lor, is their assertion that he, Gen. Taylor, is a tariff
man. This, of course, wus intended to deceive the
friends oflbo Tariff of M 2. It is a villainous cheat
to loprcscnt Gen. Taylor ns a Tariff man. ' 4
General Tailor is a cotton planter; residing on*
the banks op the Mississippi, and dy tub aid of ms
numerous slaves makes dp Hwelte hundred bales oj
cotton yearlg. His friends in the South prcss.Gen.

Cass. No one of the assailants of that distinguished

These arc tho emblems placed on the lopof a cign
post, recently erected by. one o( our worthy Burghers,’
in the rcar’of his grocery store, iff order to draw
Federal custom from that quarter, and Mo celebrate
the supposed triumph in tho restoration of thn lost
principles of tho Federalists, in tho recent election.
Oiir worthy Burgher, no doubt supposes wliut ho has |
elevated on the tup of lus polo or sign post to bo cer
tain significant emblems. \Vhut is intended as a
coon, is pronounced by the very bast naturalists who
have had llio pleasure of gazing, (from a certain po

standing with an air of‘ttonqucst over wlul Is no
doubt designed fot one of Chapmans choristers, vul

Homo fatal mishap, this emblem is as much at fault
as tho first, though perhaps representing tho real
iialo of tho case. The rootlet In.fmc.U. nothing bul

of one of tho Federal allies, the Abolition or Freo

Johnston, has been devoured and pluqcd in the capa

Tiila Is a question that will bb decided

Democrats hnving'Jost llio Stale election in'Fotiiisyl*

elected to Congress, it is certain that the next Con*
gross will bo Whig. This being the fad* otul Gen;
Taylor having promised NOT TO.Vlil'O A BANK,
what will prevent us from another United
Slates Bank? Nothing but tho defeat of General
Taylor and tho election of General Cuss* It is of no
consequence, that the Whigs sny they aro not for a
National Dank, (hat It has become qn ‘obsolete idea, 1
and so forth. You have not forgotten that this was
their cry in ,18,<10, and yet, us soon as they got into
power they chartered a FIFTY MILLION DANK,
and because John Tyler vetoed Ibis Bunk bill, tho
Wldgp, from. Maine to Florida, denounced him os.u
TRAITOR. Democrats, tho question Is now with
you whether wo shall or shall not huvo another Uni

You musi say YES or NO by your vote for Pros!-

« majority in Congress,'and,if you allow them to

can you bo idle or indifferent ? Can you look on
with indifference. and-alloW 1 tho Whigstuolcolamun
\vlio has given thorn a promise that no will, not pre
vent them from getting a United Slates Bank, if they
■can got a sufficient number of Congressman to pass
■ bill chartering such an institution. Havo you for
gotten the ovlis of the last United'States Dunk?—
Have you forgotten how that institution arrayed it
seif against life government? Have you forgotten
«ow it hired presses, orators , and Congressmen, to
carry on a. war against Gen. Jackson, because ho
exposed tho villainous conduct of tho bank directors,
end refused to give them a charter? And havo you
forgotten tho enormous loss to tho widow, tho orphan,

- gomo. idea.of tlio manner in which the Federalists
carried the late election in this Slate, may be glean*
cd from some facts related to us a day or two since,
by,a friend of most reliable character. He says that
on the election day, several of the officers of the Le
high Coal and Navigation Company, in our sister
county of Carbon, were seen leading whole sqads of
workmen employed by (He'Companj'vup to the polls,
with .tickets in their hands.'and almost compelled
these poor laborers to deposit just sqch'tipkels ab their
lordships chose to select for them.: NoVcontent with
creating a political panic } by the suspension of their
works a few days before-the election, these petty ty
rants, (or rather, as Mike .Walsh would cal! them—
these Cod fish aristocrats,) must needs watch.the
polls wllh coglo lcslapaqr man should
follow-the bent, of his own inclination and vote for a
Democrat, he must be lei] up. to. the polls, like cattle
to (he slaughter 1 Wholcommcnlaryupon the free
dom of the Fifteenth Century! And what a beauti
ful illustration of Federal-love for the poor man and
the unrestricted rig|it of suffrage. ,
•ii| Poor men, citizens of Lehigh, Carbon, Books;
Northampton and Monroe; wo ask you to look at
theso things, and then say whether you can ever vote
with a party-whose leaders -thus insult you—who
would odd the pangs of slavery to those of poverty*
and jvho would thus deprive you of the free exercise
of tho'inosl inestimable right of freemen ? ;

.'Democrats of tho United Slates ! is out this .Tael 1
enough to convince you of tho mature Rnd tendency 1
of Taylorism? Does it not prove that tho election of 1
Taylor is tho forlorn hope of Hertford convention fed*
crulism ! —that federalism from which sprung those
factions, traitorous, local efforts, principles and prej-
which brought this glorious repubiio to'the
verge ol ruin, through tho action of the members of
the Hartford convention? This convention, where
originated the very mischief that is now threatening
tho integrity of our national compact and where the
torch ol our civil disorder was first lighted. Look
to it, democrats—no matter where tho imitations of
parly may have placed you for a moment; in Whig
ranks, Van Duron ranks, or Abolition ranks; look to
it that your old, slecptdss, vigilant enemies do not
coax your heads into thcifjaps to deprive you of your
strength. Como out from among tho
rally in support of fho usages and principles of the
old Jefferson, Madisonian Democracy , sustain the
nominees of the Democratic national, convention—
LEWIS CASS, whom Jefferson' honored with his
confidence,-and WILLIAM O. BUTLER,whom the
patriotic Jackson esteemed as one of tho tho most
worthy sans of the republic. This is. (ho only safe

more than one swearing that in. case their hands did
not vote for Johnston, they should leave their situa

boring men of Pennsylvania, who submit to it, in a
position as humiliaUng as tho slaves of South Caroli

wisely make provision' for securing the voters of

Let no-Democrat- lay tho flattering unction to his
soul that tho administration of Gen. Taylor would
not bo a proscriptive Whig administration.
And hero let mo obrervo, llt.it even to secure (lie
election of Cass and . Duller, 1 would not utter a dis
respectful word against General Taylor. At the
head of our bravo troops, ho has performed most bril
liant and efficient services, in a just, ncccs»ury, and
successful war, and in that position has greatly con.
tribulcd to elevate the character of tho country
throughout tho world to a point which it had never
readied before. It is, however, no disparagement to
him to say, that hitherto ho has been nothing but a
mete soldier. He has been a man of war from his
youth upwards. Unlike Washington, Jackson, and
Harrison, he,has neverhad any, the least, experience
in civil affairs. You might as well employ me, os a
mechanic, to construct a steam-engine, as to expect
that General Taylor' could himself exorcise a* con
trolling influence in odininstoring tho vost and com.
plicated concerns of the.federal government.' The
thing is impossible. - Like the fabled Jove, ho would
have to submit to his (jcsliny. A Whig himself,
elected by Whig", and surrounded by a Whig cabi
net, he would bocompelled, by tho necessity of his
position, to carry into effect Whig principles and
Wliig measures. Indeed, ho would prove faithless
to his party should ho pursue any other course. Wo
all recollect, that previous to the election of Harrison
and Tyler, tho Whig party were solemnly pledged to
"proscribe proscription!" For,tho manner in which
they redeemed this pledge. I would refer you; In no
unkind spirit, to the llon.Francis Granger, formerly
tho Postmaster General oftho United States.

gcnco to bur shores. , Rcst yssuted, the Democrats
of Pennsylvania will never abandon principles which
have yielded such fruits in prosperity, greatness, and
glory. The Whigs are prophets, ever foreboding ills
which are never realized. Their political fortunes
depend solely upon the panics whipti Jhey can excite
{ithongsithe people immediately before on Important
election. , . ;i
The Whig party, at the present moment, calculate
upon carrying Pennsylvania by a division in the De
mocratic party in regard to the question of Slavery
in our new territories. In this expectation, t am
convinced they will be disappointed. Democrats will
never'abandon their principles and the candidates of
their parly upon a question merely transient in its
lure’, and which, no matter how.. It inay- ho decided
by Congress, can never produce any practical result
—ci(n neVefijn (iqiot of fact, introduce slavery cither
into CiHiforma or-Ncw Mexico. , , : . t
For my own Vaft, more than a year ago, In a p(ib
llshed letter lo Berks county, t strongly recommend
ed Uioseltlcmcntofthis question on the ancient basis
of the. Missouri compromise. I believed then that
this would best promote the peace and, haimony of
the Upipn { apd I bav‘6 since seen no to change
my opfnlofl. Although, I siIJl prefer this compromise,
yet I should not,object to the compromise which was
reported by.Mn,Clayton, and passed*the Senate, at
Its Inst session, leaving the whole subject of slavery
in, the new territories, so Jong as they'may remain
territories, to be decided as a question.of..conatilOr
lionai law by the Supreme Court of thc-U. Sr- >
1 have said that this question is in its nature Iran*
rtlcnl, In California it must bo finally decided within
, a btiof-petiod by.the authority from which, under
our constitution,-there dun lie no.oppoal. • All-admil
that the people of lhat Territory, when assembled in
convention to frame a Salute constitution, possess the
sole* the.exclusive power to delcrmmp.wlicthcc sla.
very shall nr shall flot..c£ljtl within Its,limits; -and
the tide of population now flowing into it fully justi
fies the belief that California will bo admitted as a
Stale into the Union during.llio next Congress*
But what wilt be the conditiontofdutifornlq during
tho brief, intervening period 7 -When wo acquired it
from Mexico it was freo territory, both in law and In
fad; and free it must remain, unless its prcscnt,con
dition shall be changed by the.positive enactment of
a ceyipclppL legislative uillhofliy. •• ■
..Such being the clear law of tho ease, what Is the
slate of the fact? Time and more correct informa
(ion from California have fully demonstrated that
thj%ift,no longer a practical question. Slavery never
will exist<in California. Both (ho will of its people
and the laws of nature have decreed,the exclusion of
slavery, from that territory. Tho people already there
arc. nearly unanimous upon the subject, and the cmi>
grants who'art! now crowding into this fluff and fer
liio territory are chiefly from the middle and northern
Slates, Besides the soil,.the climate, and llie.produc
lionsof California are all opposed to slavery. N.v

and known'opinionl of tho people, that when they

therefore, transient In Ittf nattirc, nna Rol’brthe liSasl

brief period both in California and New and
this is most propilions for (lie peace and perpetuity pf
our Union —of our blessed Union—which wo should
never name without heartfelt gratitude (o Almighty
God, and which cun never bo endangered by any oth
er question than that of slavery. This will, fortunate
ly, bo o final settlement; because wo possess no more
territory to which the question can be at all applica
ble.' As a practical question, all tho excitement
which has been raised upon tho subject bus been
worse than useless. * .......
Tor my own part.J respect profoundly the feelings
of those Democrats in my native Stale who have par
taken in this excitement; I know thorn to bo l
ntelligent, and as devoted to the groat and glorious
principles of the parly, us-any Democrats through*
oul tho land. Ills fur this reason,! think l inay
venture to assure you that they will never peril these
principles for the vain purpose of excluding slavery
from a territory where, from.tho nature of things, it
never can exist. They •will-not suffer the ancient
and lime honored banner of Democracy, which has
waived over 'them In triumph throughout so many
well fought fields, tu bo trailed in the dust and Irani*
plod underfoot by their old political enemies, for the
•sake of a more übstaction. If they should act in
this manner, bitter would he their regrel opon finding
a Whig administration Installed in/power, by their
desertion of Iho good bid cause at the present critical
mojnont. Sad would be lliolrrcflcclions In beholding
their ancient adversary engaged in tjio work.of des
troying nil those wise measures of’Democratic poll* 1
'ey which they themselves had contributed loeslab- i
lish/ond In substituting for tlnjfh the off exploded «
measures of Iho Whig parly, Which they; all their ’
lives, hod loudly condomncdand roslslcd. You may I
rest assured, my fellow citizens, that we shall never i
witness such a spectacle in good old Democratic
Pennsylvania.
But there is another aspect of the Presidential
question which has always struck me with the great*
i cat force. \V hat would bo tbo effect of Gen. Taylor’s
election, ns a precedent, in alter limes? From Cm
sar to Cromwell, and from Cromwell to Napoleon, all
powerful republics have been destroyed by investing
successful generals, fresh from Iho,fields of Jheir glo*
ry, with the highest civic power. The history of the
world has, therefore, Unghl rcpualica to bo jealous
For tills reason, wo have adojit*
